In real life rifle nades would also require the soldier to reload the weapon with special rounds to fire the nade.

I feel like adding this type of details will kinda help balance grenade launchers, in Rising Storm 2 the MAS-49 had to be reloaded with special ammo before firing the grenade launcher unlike Enlisted where in 2 seconds they just equip the launcher and boom

Current nade launchers doesn’t explode when hitting someone in the chest or at the ground 40% of the time so no point in nerfing them even more if they fix them + HE shells and mgs not doing anything then yeah why not.

They should partially or fully revert that nerf and do this instead.
Right now, they’re basically shooting live rounds at a live grenade

With this it would be realistic, And we would be able to revert the nerf, as you said.
It would have the con of: No quick switching between nades, Meaning you have to actively choose to use the nade launcher or use the normal mode.

I’ve encountered it a few times, but 40% is exaggerated
In Tunisia, where there are no automatic rifles, GL spamming is an annoying problem, so they deserve the nerf

If I recall correctly: The Japanese Grenade Launcher actually shot a normal round through it’s Grenade Launching cup setup when shooting grenades, so if this sort of mechanic were added it would actually give the Japanese an advantage in something other than having swords on everything.
I personally think it’d be neat if they added the bullet that the Japanese Launcher fires when firing their grenade launcher… for those few instances were that bullet could be hella useful.

this is only really true for everyone but russians who said fuck it and used live ammo
Which makes them unique.
Simply put: They could balance it around: here’s 5-8 rifle nades due to you need to reload new ammo.

hey here’s 3 rifle nades due to you can get your attachment on faster.
Not only that, With reloading animation of propulsion/blank cartridge while reloading the Rifle Grenade, It should be able to be repleanished via ammo crates. Also, adjustable sights for the rifle grenade firing should be available to be used. Making it be light-light mortar used for long-range combat rather then blank range grenade spammer.
